World Table Tennis Championships: Ma Lin continues to adhere to the principle! The women's team sent Wang Yidi in the finals, but Wang Manyu did not have the opportunity to participate

On the evening of February 24, Beijing time, the women's team finals of the Busan World Table Tennis Championships are about to start, and the list of the Chinese team is officially released - head coach Ma Lin insists on determining the candidates for the tournament based on the principle of world ranking, and finally the first Sun Yingsha, the second Wang Yidi, and the third Chen Meng participate in the battle, Wang Manyu and Chen Xingtong are not allowed to play, and the specific arrangements are as follows:

First set: Sun Yingsha VS Zhang Benmeihe;

Second set: Chen Meng VS Hina Hayata;

Third set: Wang Yidi VS Miu Hirano;

Fourth set: Sun Yingsha VS Hina Hayata;

Fifth set: A is VS Miwa Zhangmoto.

In this regard, many fans agreed with the decision of the coaching staff, and some people questioned: Wang Yidi lost to Japanese players four times last year, can she withstand sending her out this time?

Friends who pay attention to the table tennis world know that the current Olympic selection system in the Chinese team adopts a point system, and the team knockout match of the World Table Tennis Championships can also provide points for the players, which makes the coaching staff have to promulgate rules to determine the candidates to play, so as to maintain the fairness of the competition.

During last year's Asian Championships, Ma Lin made it clear that the important matches of the team competition will be participated by the world's highest-ranked athlete in the team, and it is currently Sun Yingsha, Wang Yidi, and Chen Meng, so they have always appeared in the knockout round of the Busan World Table Tennis Championships.

But as mentioned earlier, Wang Yidi's record against Japanese players is not outstanding, last year lost twice to Hina Hayata, once to Miyu Hirano, once to Miyu Kihara, and in the past he was defeated by Misei Ito, and also almost collapsed against Miwa Zhangmoto, so many fans think that it is better to let Wang Manyu, who has a more outstanding record against Japan, participate in the finals.

However, now that the list of national table tennis players has been confirmed, it means that Wang Manyu will not be able to participate, and Wang Yidi will continue to be reused, so I would like to congratulate her.

However, as mentioned earlier, Wang Yidi lost to Miu Hirano once last year, and although he won it back quickly, it still makes people feel worried after all. But objectively speaking, even if Wang Yidi collapses, she only assumes the position of the No. 3 main force, and losing one game cannot shake the dominant position of national table tennis, so the pressure on the final is not particularly great.

Of course, in terms of the overall record, Wang Yidi still has an advantage over the Japanese players, mainly against Hina Hayata, this time the two have no chance to fight, so expect her to defeat Miu Hirano and win the championship with her teammates: come on!
